Hello Sunshine is an impressive step up from the usual post-apocalypse survival RPG formula, playing with some clever ideas around scorching sunlight, blissful shade, and the cycle of day and night.

I'm at a holiday party for a networking group, and the Secret Santa theme is for was to give someone a gift that they would have liked as a child, make a small speech, and the group guesses the intended recipient.
All the gifts are being donated to the Children's Hospital.
Great fun! Great cause!

The Underworld CCG from Ludia was a team where almost everyone gelled. We turned out the full game in 9 months and had a great time creating new tech and 300ish animated cards.
Colleagues still talk about the team vibe, and I'm still chasing that high, tbh.
And looking for an excuse to remake it!

What’s the most fun game you ever worked on? I don’t mean the game itself being fun but the team/people you were with. My most fun one was GRiD with Codemasters, I really loved the environment art team, we had so many laughs during that project even though the overtime was very high. #gamedev

The ending of the first film was very nearly perfect (they botched the timing a little bit... no spoilers), so I'm torn about the need for a sequel with John Wick-style backstory escalation...

Mostly known as "Mama", Kresnilla built herself quite a reputation over the last 60 years as a merchant with a sharp eye for finding the perfect weapon for her clients. She lost her eye in her youth and trained herself to never be careless so again.

One of the few d20 conversions that I think didn't do damage to the original brand: Call of Cthulhu d20. Great author (John Tynes!) , solid publication (by WotC!), and perhaps more importantly: always intended as a one-and-done, so it didn't crash in 2003 and take the original with it.
